Exploring antibiotic resistance genes and metal resistance genes in plasmid metagenomes from wastewater treatment plants
Plasmids operate as independent genetic elements in microorganism communities. Through horizontal gene transfer (HGT), they can provide their host microorganisms with important functions such as antibiotic resistance and heavy metal resistance. In this study, six metagenomic libraries were construct...
